Workshop 1: You Are Successful with Earl McAllister
Learners are invited to "sharpen their own axes", in this case, to increase their personal skills in areas of confidence, self esteem and motivation.

Workshop 2: Getting to Know Yourself with David Pilmer
David challenges us to get to know our own strengths in terms of multiple intelligences and learning styles, and helps us develop metacognition by asking us to think about our own learning process.

Workshop 3: Did I Say That Out Loud? with Jenni Blackmore
Using puppets and masks, learners examine how they can create positive results, even in negative situations, by assessing feedback and communicating their expectations clearly. This session will emphasize the importance of good communications with others but also with ourselves.

Workshop 4: Raising Self-Esteem & Understanding Job Finding Strategies with Ben Gale
This interactive workshop focuses on developing a sense of our own strengths and achievements, building on our prior learning, and improving our interview skills.

Workshop 5: The Magic That Is You with Kathy Rector
Learners will identify the good in themselves in this creative workshop. Kathy invites participants to think about their goals and where their learning can take them, and in the process, create a visual representation of their reflection, a magic wand.

Workshop 6: Acting As If: The Adult Learner Returns with Jean Desmond & Linda Wentzel
This workshop will help adults who are returning to learning after long absences to feel better about their decision. It deals with issues that adult learners face on the home front, in the learning environment, and within themselves.
